Weird, for boomers in NA it was normal to be in their own house immediately after graduating. Not many lived with their parents after the 18-22 range. Not having a place by 23 would have you defending your reputation.

The notion that you should be able to immediately buy a house at the beginning of your career is ridiculously entitled.
